winter wonderland
it just keeps comin’. fluffy white flakes. i’m in the office on a saturday afternoon having just sat through a two-hour lunch meeting. fortunately for me, i found a parking spot someone had shoveled out and – miraculously – not saved for later with chairs and a broomstick. now i must leave that spot and make my way back to the unplowed street into my apartment. and there i will stay, forsaking an afternoon baby shower and, this evening, dinner with friends. here’s hoping the snow stops so i can go to church in the morning.

chairs and a broomstick? really?
mdog
oh, yes! chairs and a broomstick, patio furniture, work horses . . . you name it, people use it to "reserve" the spaces they've worked so hard to clear.
and no one takes the stuff? or runs over it?
such honorable folks!
mdog
honorable? i'm not so sure.
scared is more like it.
i'm afraid that if i move someone's stuff and park in their spot i'll come back to a car-length key scratch.
